NBC News Poll, Only 6% Of Americans Say ObamaCare Worked Well, 8 Times More Think GOP Will Fix It

The above title is accurate. NBC put a laughable title on their poll. “As GOP Pushes Repeal, Obamacare Has Never Been More Popular: NBC News/WSJ poll. “

Notice there are no numbers in the title. If 1% of Americans were in favor of it in the last 7 years and today it went up to 2% approval and 98% disapproval, NBC could put the same headline up “Never Been More Popular”. The headline is meaningless except in terms of raising a red flag that a fake news story would follow. The truth is the law is and has been the most unpopular major legislation in 100 years.

For chuckles you may want to read the NBC article below and observe their attempt at deceiving people into thinking Obamacare is popular.

As GOP Pushes Repeal, Obamacare Has Never Been More Popular: NBC News/WSJ poll

As Republicans get closer to repealing it, President Barack Obama’s federal health-care law — or Obamacare — has never been more popular, according to results from a new national NBC News/Wall Street Journal.

And half of Americans — 50 percent — say they have little to no confidence that Republican proposals to replace the law will make things better.

The poll finds 45 percent of respondents believing that the health-care law is a good idea, which is the highest percentage here since the NBC/WSJ poll began asking the question in April 2009.

By contrast, 41 percent of Americans say the health-care law is a bad idea. It’s the first time in the poll since the law’s passage in 2010 where more think it is a good idea than a bad idea.

Attitudes about Obamacare continue to break along partisan lines — 80 percent of Democrats say the law is a good idea, versus just 13 percent of Republicans. (Among independents, 36 percent say it’s a good idea, while 41 percent say it’s a bad one.)

Last week, congressional Republicans in the House and Senate passed legislation that begins the process of repealing the law. No Democrats voted to join them.

Yet according to the poll, a combined 50 percent of Americans say the law is working well (6 percent) or needs minor modifications to improve it (44 percent).

That’s compared with a combined 49 percent who believe it needs a major overhaul (33 percent) or should be totally eliminated (16 percent).

And just 26 percent of Americans have either a “great deal” or “quite a bit of confidence” that congressional Republicans will replace the law with something better, while a combined 50 percent say they have either “very little” or no confidence with the GOP here.
